Benefits of technology

An object of the present invention is to provide a connection / disconnection module for connecting and disconnecting pairs of conductors, which module is of simplified design and is simple to use, and is therefore low cost.

Problems solved by technology

Such a connection / disconnection device is relatively complex both in terms of the number of independent parts mounted separately from one another and also in terms of the resulting assembly / disassembly operations and the length of time required to connect together / disconnect pairs of conductors.

Embodiment Construction

The connection / disconnection modules shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 are described simultaneously while specifying their essential differences with reference to these figures.

Each of the modules comprises two connectors 1 & 2 and an insulating support 3 on which the two connectors are mounted facing each other and plug into each other and into the support.

Each of the connectors 1 and 2 is assigned to connecting a respective pair of insulated electric conductors To this end, the connector 1 is provided both with two tubular first contacts that are identical to each other, that are not shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 but that are designated below by reference 11, and also with a first pusher 12 moveably mounted on first ends of the contacts. The pusher 12 holds the contacts side-by-side, and connects a first pair of conductors to the first ends of the contacts. It is provided with two passageways 13 extending transversely to the contacts and facing the first ends thereof, and serving to receive the con...

Abstract

The connection / disconnection module includes an insulating support and two first and two second insulation-displacement contacts that can be plugged into one another. It includes firstly two connectors, each of which comprises the two first contacts or the two second contacts, and a pusher moveably mounted on the two contacts, and secondly the support comprising a base and a connection block projecting from the base for the purpose of connecting the connectors to said block and to each other.

Description

The present invention relates to a connection / disconnection module for connecting and disconnecting pairs of insulated electric conductors. Such modules are in particular designed to make up assemblies for connecting together and cross-connecting pairs of conductors.Document EP-A-0 248 743 discloses a modular connection device for connecting together pairs of insulated conductors. That device comprises an insulating support, two extender stacks of tubular contacts in the support, guide means making it possible for each contact to be displaced axially but not angularly relative to the support, and an actuating screw for driving two side-by-side contacts in translation relative to the support.In that known device, all of the contacts are identical. Both of the ends of each of them are insulation-displacement ends so that a conductor can be connected to one of the insulation-displacement ends, and one of the ends of each of the contacts can be plugged into the other end of another cont...
